How earth bonding plugs are used:

Each bonding plug fits directly into the mains supply socket, connecting with only the earth conductor.

Some earth bonding plugs come with a built in 1MΩ resistor to the earth pin in accordance with many industry standards for handling electrostatic sensitive devices.
